Santa Fosca
Santa Fosca was founded in the 9th century when the saint's body was brought to Torcello (where a church was built to house it). The church we see today only dates back to the end of the 17th century and the architect is unknown. It has a single nave with side altars and a square chancel flanked by side chapels. Its classical façade, sometimes attributed to Domenico Rossi, was added between 1733-1741 and funded by members of the Doná family.
